'It is big, bright, beautiful, and perfectly suitable for every task. '
'Thin and wide the overall impression is of ultimate portability, a robust handset with a nice if plasticky finish. '
'Image and video quality is very similar to the Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note II, which is to say good but not as stunningly detailed as the S4. - Lastly, the phone has physical front buttons rather than capacitive.'
'Phone quality wise, the device is strong, with calls coming through crisp. '
'The Motorola Defy is available exclusively through Telstra in Australia for three months from 30 November and is rated as a BlueTick phone, meaning it provides superior coverage in regional and rural areas of Australia.'
'"DEFY has been designed to handle everything that life throws your way," said Alain Mutricy, senior vice president, portfolio and device product management, Motorola Mobility.'
'solid phone'
'At 59 x 107 x 13.4mm and weighing 118g it's one of the smallest and lightest phones around that features a screen above 3.5in. '
'The back is rounded and feels comfy in your hand, plus it sports a matt finish that is relatively good at what it´s supposed to do, i.e. prevent the phone from accidentally slip out of your hand.'
'We found the phone stable and well-behaved overall and we’d guess the firmware is reasonably close to release candidate status. '
